"How could a girl's family be willing to come here to take a look, your eldest brother is stupid!" They greet men, not take care of their daughters.
"Maybe I'm stupid!" Liu Jiu'er smiled softly.
"Yo! The girl laughs so much more beautifully, you just want to laugh more! Like! All right, girl, stand up! Look at the men's clothes that Mei Niang dressed you up, how handsome they are! ”
Liu Jiu'er stood up and followed Mei Niang to the mirror, she hadn't pretended to be a boy before, and she was disguised, but I don't know what her face would look like if she was dressed as a boy when she was not easy to face?
As soon as she looked in the mirror, Liu Jiu'er was surprised, oh my God! This is called a handsome student! It's a pity that her face is not a man.
"Isn't it very handsome, and it's unstoppable?" Mei Niang said proudly.
Liu Jiu'er nodded vigorously, this is much better than the men's clothes that Brother Su gave her, haha! It seems that she will like to dress up as a man in the future, Liu Jiu'er laughed.
"It's good if you're happy! You're glad your big brother's money wasn't spent in vain! Mei Niang will take you to your eldest brother! "Liu Jiu'er with this look, Mei Niang is not afraid of being called a girl, although her delicate face and delicate face make her look like a tomboy, but it is better than women's clothing!
Xu is too excited, Liu Jiuer left all the previous unpleasantness behind, and now this dress is also exciting enough, it is difficult to come out to play, and it is still in the flower building, hahaha! Her funny cells are coming alive again.
Su Yehua sat at the side of the hall, alone, and there was no girl by his side, but his handsome face had begun to attract the girls around him, but Su Yehua's face was a little serious, so no girl dared to approach directly.
"Brother Su!" Liu Jiu'er greeted.
Seeing Jiu'er, dressed in men's clothes, waving to him, Su Yehua's originally serious face finally relaxed a little, and he stood up and waved in response.
But just as Liu Jiu'er happily walked towards Su Yehua, a figure suddenly appeared beside her, moving so fast! collided directly with Liu Jiu'er, fortunately, the other party reacted quickly, grabbed Jiu'er's arm, so that the two of them kept their balance together, the other party's fingers were slender, and as soon as he grabbed Jiu'er's arm, he opened his eyes suddenly, hehe! This doesn't look like a man's arm!
"I'm sorry! I didn't look at the road. Liu Jiu'er hurriedly apologized.
"......" The other party didn't make a sound, but just took a deep look at Liu Jiu'er, who had already raised his head to look at him, this is definitely a daughter's family!
"Did it hurt you?" Seeing that the other party didn't speak, Liu Jiu'er asked uneasily.
"Jiu'er! Why? At this time, Su Yehua's voice came from behind him.
When Liu Jiu'er was about to say hello and come over by herself, she found that the person around her who was bumped into by her was gone, alas! This person walks quite fast, enough atmosphere! He doesn't pursue faults, but he is a good person.
With a hand on her shoulder, Jiu'er turned around to be Su Yehua, and he was asking her with his eyes, what happened?
"It's okay! I bumped into someone just now, maybe it's not serious, and he left! Jiu'er shrugged.
"Since it's okay, come here! There are a lot of people here, and there are people everywhere, so you still don't run around. Coupled with the fact that storytelling is about to start, I think you will enjoy today's storytelling. Su Yehua said.
"Is Brother Su so clear what he will say today?" Liu Jiu'er blinked.
"I don't know, guess!"
The table and stool have been set up on the stage, and a person dressed as a scholar walked on the stage, and as soon as he came on stage, he was immediately exchanged for everyone's applause, Su Yehua explained, there are two famous storytellers in Kyoto, one is the Shenduan Master who took her to listen some time ago, and the other is the person in front of her, but listening to the Shenduan Master's storytelling is not something that ordinary people can understand, it must be a reader, because the Shenduan Master was the teacher of the emperor before he didn't tell the story, so his speech is all crepe, Let people listen to the story while pondering the content of the story, but the storyteller here is different, he is from the people, and he has not read a lot of books, so there is a hint of ridicule between the words, plus he said that the book is not about history or some glorious event, but about what happens around him, which is a metaphor for a rich and noble family to cheat on a lover! Or which lady has a crush on which son, but they can't be together because of their identity, in short, they can make people listen to his humorous words and then smile heartily.
"Last time, the old man said about the visit of the envoy from the south, and everyone knows that our country has always been so safe and peaceful, and there is a reason for this, of course, the first is that we do have a very strict armed force, and under the leadership of General Li and General Li Xiao, it has always been very stable. But the second point is to be close, our princess in Kyoto and the queen married a foreign prince, through joint marriage to promote the economic development and business exchanges between the two countries, this is all a matter of the Ming file, the emperor's eldest princess, with the appearance of the country and the city, plus the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are proficient, the emperor is not for the stability of the country, the eldest princess will be married to the Sara Empire, so such a powerful empire has not captured and invaded us, the eldest princess has played a very big role. From this, it can be seen that most of the envoys from the south came to make peace this time. Speaking of this, the storyteller took a sip of tea, knocked on the table with the fan in his hand and said, "Okay, that's all for the last time, today, let's talk about another thing that everyone is familiar with." ”
When the envoy from the south came to visit, because he came to make peace? Liu Jiu'er blinked when she heard this, and she looked at Su Yehua: "Brother Su, do you think the storyteller's words are true?" ”
"Obviously, every time he says something, there is an eighty or ninety percent chance, otherwise how could he attract so many listeners." Su Yehua replied, and after speaking, his eyes fell on the storyteller.
"Then now in our Kyoto, how many princesses are there in Jilu, which one is the most likely to marry into the southern country?" Liu Jiu'er then asked, because she felt a hint of ominous premonition, the relationship between the eldest brother and the seventh princess is good, I'm afraid-
"There are two of the emperor's daughters and Xu, one is the seventh princess of the queen's mother, and the other is the ninth princess of the noble concubine, but it is obvious that the possibility of the seventh princess will be relatively large." Su Yehua explained while listening to the book.
"Why?" Now Liu Jiu'er is in a hurry, if the seventh princess marries in the south, what will her eldest brother do?
"Because the ninth princess is disabled, the prince of the southern kingdom will not look down on a disabled person!"
Right! When I saw the Ninth Princess for the first time in the palace, she was in a wheelchair, her legs and feet were not in the same way, and the Seventh Princess was also older than the Ninth Princess, so the princess who married to the south must be the Seventh Princess, what should I do now? Does Big Brother know about this? What would the eldest brother think if he found out?
"Jiu'er, don't worry about the previous story first, listen carefully to the next story, this story is even more attractive!" Su Yehua's voice came.
What story is more important than the big brother's affairs, what she has to do now is to tell the big brother quickly! Lest the eldest brother realize it later, what should I do if my emotions are not well controlled at that time? Liu Jiu'er was a little reluctant to listen, but for Su Yehua's sake, she still pursed her lips and listened attentively.
"I just talked about General Li, what I said today! It's related to the Li Mansion. "The storyteller said.
Hey? What could it be related to Uncle Lee?
"General Li has always been a god-like figure in the minds of the people, their Li family defends the country and works hard for the motherland is obvious to all, speaking of which, General Li Xiao must be no stranger to everyone, growing up in the army, is a rare talent, has always attracted everyone's attention, so everyone must know who General Li Xiao's favorite girl is!"
When the storyteller said this, Liu Jiu'er was suddenly shocked and shrunk her neck, she had an ominous premonition, and sure enough-
"Everyone should have guessed that it is Liu Jiu'er, the third daughter of Prime Minister Liu Cheng, and when it comes to this, Liu Jiu'er is really a strange woman, I don't know if you believe it or not."
Forehead! When did she become a strange woman, how could she have such a nickname outside! Liu Jiu'er blinked incredulously, and Su Yehua, who was beside her, curled the corners of her mouth with a smile.
"Everyone knows that the third lady of Liufu is rude and willful, and she is not used to learning anywhere, and she can't even manage Prime Minister Liu, but in the past year, Miss Liu San has changed, and I listen to everyone's meaning is to become smart, I don't know if you still remember the last time foreign envoys visited, the emperor arranged a banquet, when Miss Liu San said an ordinary sword as the Central Plains Bagua Shenlong Sword, and said it was amazing, and the emperor Lao Er was full of smiles, so that foreign envoys were envious, but she was a little girl who stayed at home, How did she learn about the Gossip Divine Dragon Sword, I dare to guess that Prime Minister Liu Cheng is a civil official, and he shouldn't be very clear about the sword! So Miss Liu San's kung fu to turn the situation around like this is really clever, Bing Xue is smart, and it suddenly forms a stark contrast to her rude and willful rumors, all of you, how can you not like such a strange woman, General Li Xiao! Coupled with the friendship between Li Fu and Liu Fu for generations, they grew up together, even if there is no relationship, the friendship is strong! ”
Seeing that the storyteller said a lot of nonsense, and praised her a lot, since she could continue to talk about Li Nai's liking for her so smoothly, Liu Jiu'er blushed more and more when she listened, this was the first time she heard others tell her own story as a story.
"So General Li Xiao and Miss Liu San are a suitable pair, but there will always be people who don't like it! Miss Liu San became the fiancée of the third prince, and General Li Xiao's fiancée was Qing Hui'er, the daughter of Qing Taifu, who had previously bought \/official to form his own team, and General Li Xiao married the daughter of a criminal minister, which did not reduce the reputation and status of the Li family! ”
"And when it comes to the marriage contract between Miss Liu San and the third prince, the old man has to tell a secret from many years ago."
When it came to the secret, everyone began to get excited, and the audience suddenly let out a cry, and even Liu Jiu'er expressed interest, what kind of secret did she have about her marriage with the third prince?
"Good! Don't worry, everyone, please listen to it carefully, when it comes to the first emperor, the Liu and Li families were already very powerful, and one article and one martial arts have been dominating the entire palace government, and it is not possible to go on like this! There will definitely be a lot of pressure on the royal family, no! In case of the marriage of Liu and Li, the power will be instantly strong, and the power will not be allowed to seize power and usurp the throne! So the first emperor thought of such a way to break up the harmony between the two mansions of Liu and Li, that is, to marry the belly, when Miss Liu San was still in the belly of the prime minister's wife, the first emperor made an order, the first daughter of the Liu Mansion will marry the first surviving prince of the royal family, this is nothing more than a big temptation, what does the first surviving prince mean? Maybe it's the current prince and the future emperor, so the Liu Mansion kept this marriage contract secret until Miss Liu San grew up. ”
"The reason is very simple, the first emperor was afraid of the marriage of Liu and Li, but he also wanted to eliminate some of the forces of the two mansions, so he promoted Qingfu, but Qing Taifu was not right, after learning this secret, he was afraid that his position would not be guaranteed, so he attracted the killing machine, you see, this is not karma, there is a reason behind everything."
Hearing this, Liu Jiu'er was also silent, it turned out that the reason was this, her marriage contract between Liu Jiu'er and the third prince was not that the emperor had a close relationship with his grandfather, but it was just a tool for the emperor to prevent Liu and Li from becoming stronger, so her marriage contract was just a marriage that made the royal family feel at ease, what is the difference between this and the princess marrying a foreign prince and maintaining harmony between the two countries?
It turns out that he has always been a pawn of this fate.
"That's why there is a rumor that the emperor's holy decree destroys a pair of lovers, to put it bluntly, it is just a means used by the imperial family in order to protect their noble status......"
Liu Jiu'er barely listened to the words of the storyteller, she had already listened to the essence of this listening to the book thoroughly, she closed her eyes and leaned her back on the cushion behind her, why did there be a slight coldness in her chest that made her feel cold? Grandmothers or parents know about this! They were also forced to sacrifice her marriage in desperation! But take a step back and think about it, if your daughter can marry a prince, and maybe she is the prince of the current emperor, this is also the marriage that many girls take the liberty of!
Liu Jiu'er has been silent, the storyteller has said so many speculations, but there is one thing he doesn't know, the first emperor's marriage contract also invisibly hides another secret, the third prince is a broken sleeve, and she Liu Jiu'er is a victim of this marriage.
The hand was held by Su Yehua, and the other party's voice reached Liu Jiu'er's ears.
"Jiu'er, what are you thinking? So fascinating! ”
The hand was withdrawn from Brother Su's big hand, and Brother Su seemed to like holding her hand very much today, she shook her head: "I didn't think about anything, but I felt weird when my own business was said in public like this." ”
"That's the joy of listening to books! The reason why I talk about you means that Jiu'er has a trace of status in the eyes of the people. In fact, Jiu'er, you don't have to care too much, the enthusiasm of the people is not very high, these things will be passed on, and then suppressed and suppressed, and it will not be long before they disappear. Su Yehua comforted.
Liu Jiu'er nodded as if she didn't understand, I hope so!
"But that's not the point!" At this time, Su Yehua's voice became serious.
Liu Jiu'er raised her head and met the other party's eyes, so what is the focus of Brother Su's care?
"Did you just give in? Willing to be a pawn for the royal family? A victim of this marriage? Do you like the Three Princes? ”
Liu Jiu'er was silent, and then shook her head, she didn't like it, but she didn't hate it either, and was forced to say in a helpless voice: "What can it do?" My father said, this is my life. ”
"Now that I'm here, I can break your restricted fate, I told you before, as long as you want, I can take you away, take you to live the free life you want, you don't have to worry about any problems in life, I can take care of these for you, you just need to live yourself."
"Brother Su, Jiu'er feels that she doesn't have the right to take advantage of your care and care for Jiu'er." She shook her head, because she was only grateful to Su Yehua, and she was not emotional!
"What if I give you that right!" Su Yehua said.
Looking at each other's eyes, the affection in Su Yehua's eyes is so fascinating, but she Liu Jiu'er can't be fascinated, maybe she is going to live up to Brother Su's concern, she is a true friend of Brother Su, she is unwilling to use him, if she can't marry the man she likes, then it's not the same with anyone, the third prince is good! Whether it's Brother Su or even Brother Nai, they're all generals.
Now that fate has signed the red thread in the hands of her and the three princes, she can only accept her fate!
"This isn't the Jiu'er I know!" At this time, Su Yehua's voice became heavier, and he grabbed Jiu'er's hand again: "The Jiu'er I know, I am not afraid of heaven and earth, as long as I am not willing to throw away everything I want, how can you succumb to this passive fate now!" ”
"Can I not give in? It's the emperor who is married, if I resist willfully, I can leave with Brother Su, but it is my family who will be punished, and my father will be implicated, they love me so much, I can't be so selfish, right! When Liu Jiu'er said this, her eyes turned red in an instant, was she willing to sacrifice the happiness of the rest of her life? It's just that how many women in this world are together because they like it, and she is just one of the women in the appointment of her parents.
Liu Jiu'er's words made Su Yehua also silent, right! What she said is not right, Jiu'er is sensible, and she is really not liked by him!
